About this palette

This 4-color muted palette runs from Blush Essence (#D789D7) as its lightest tone to Blue Depths (#2A3D66) as its darkest. It blends Blush Essence, Amethyst, Coronation Blue and Blue Depths into a single set you can drop straight into a UI. None of the 6 in-palette color pairings clear the WCAG AA contrast threshold (4.5:1), so pair these colors with black or white for body text.

A versatile palette suitable for marketing pages, product hero blocks, illustrations, and accent UI states.
